No longer rumor. Matt Barnes/Hawes for Stephenson.

Wish we could have traded JR or Shump for him.

We probably could have but around the time they were trying to move him....no one wanted to touch him. There was I believe 1 possibility of him moving I think in an Nets/OKC blockbuster but no one bit. Phil probably didn't Phil he was worth the headache.


Already updated in the "Transaction Thread".....just trying to establish a protocol of consistent streamlined fluid Topics of conversation. Most things that we discuss can be compiled in about 10 Master threads....maybe less. It would probably be easier to catalogue/archive what was said and pull back if and when necessary.

Recent New York Knicks trade rumors have linkedthe team to a possible deal with the Phoenix Suns. A Knicks trade rumorindicates that Eric Bledsoe and the No. 13 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft could beoffered in exchange for the Knicks? No. 4 overall selection. The Knicks ownthat No. 4 pick, but with three players the team wants expected to already beoff the board, there have been various reports that the team is willing to dealthe pick. Now several places are reporting on a possible Knicks deal with the Suns,likely stemming from an online chat that NBA analyst Chad Ford hosted on ESPN.comback on Wednesday (June 17).

During that chat, Ford addressed how the Sunsmay be more enamored with Brandon Knight than Eric Bledsoe moving forward. Whenpressed about what the Suns might be willing to offer, a deal including Bledsoeand the No. 13 pick as a starting point made sense to him. It might also besomething the Knicks seriously consider if Phil Jackson feels Bledsoe wouldwork well with Carmelo Anthony. While there is no indication that either teamhas broached this topic, the rumor has been building in the last 36 hours.

Maybe the reason that these New York Knickstrade rumors are resonating as true is that the team has routinely dealt picksand young players to acquire veterans. That?s how the Knicks got CarmeloAnthony away from the Denver Nuggets and put the franchise in the position itcurrently resides. With a lot of salary cap spaceto play with, the Knicks could certainly afford the contract Bledsoe was given.Bledsoe is under contract through the 2018/19 NBA season, with an escalatingsalary of $13.5 million for next season that increases by $500,000 each year.It?s not a question of money, but rather whether the Knicks want to trade thathigh pick in the 2015 NBA Draft.
As previouslyreported on the Inquisitr, Knicks team president Phil Jacksonhas a lot of work to do in the NBA offseason. There are several free agentsthat have already expressed interest in signing with the franchise, and Jacksonhas a lot of money to spend. It will be very interesting to see which playerswant to come play for Jackson and with Carmelo Anthony. There will likely becountless New York Knicks trade rumors with just a week until the 2015 NBADraft takes place. The franchise holds an important spot in the draft orderthat could be used to improve with youth or to acquire players in a deal.

I guess this can include coaching and exec potential movements too as they can be intertwined....if it came to compensation



The Mavericks btw are the team Ty Lawson has most interest in joining after he made a tweet right after the season stating so.

Cavs looking to package the 24th pick w/ Haywood. We need a C; would we eat 10 mil to get another first round pick? Maybe if Lyles is still there?

It would be a good deal even if we had to keep Calderon and just used one of our trade exceptions to get him. He's a stud that would help immediately.

Man if Phil trades this pick and doesn't acquire multiple draft assets in this draft I'm gonna be irate




And Detroit potentially trying to pawn off Jennings to us is laughable even if Calderon was swapped this accomplishes nothing.

2 rumors about D-Russ that turned out to be false. Someone below the Sixers must be throwing salt leaks(probably us ha ha ha)





Sixers traded Elfrid Payton for this guy who btw was teenage teammates with Hezonja(who appears to have had a bigger jump) as a talent comparing their young career.

I don't get it. Is the main source of Detroit's interest in THJ that his dad sees that his son's career could be on the brink and he wants to bring him to Detroit to coach him? Heck, anything Detroit wants to give us for THJ without us taking significant salary in return would be okay with me.

The Pistons have shown interest in trading for Knicks guard Tim Hardaway Jr., league sources told ESPN (June 22).
Detroit could look to deal guard Brandon Jennings, who averaged 15.4 points and 6.6 rebounds per game last season before rupturing his Achilles tendon in January.
Jennings has one year and $8.3 million left on his contract with the Pistons.
Hardaway averaged 11.5 points per game last season, switching between a starter and reserve.
For the Knicks to acquire Jennings, the team would have to use its trade exception, ESPN reports.

Hardaway Jr.’s father, Tim Sr., is an assistant coach under Stan Van Gundy in Detroit. Such interest obviously makes sense.
It would appear as though the writing is on the wall for Hardaway Jr. to be traded this summer. He was continuously criticized for his poor defensive instincts this past season, and had to really earn his keep and prove his worth just to get consistent minutes. He was underutilized throughout much of the season. When Carmelo Anthony shut it down for the season, the youngster was relied upon more, but by then, it was too late.
Hardaway Jr. isn’t exactly a player who is taylor-made for the triangle, and it shows. That’s not to say he’s a bad player, but Phil Jackson and Co. are certainly looking for players who fit a certain mold. If the Michigan product doesn’t fit, it’d be more beneficial to trade him and actually get something of value back in return. The idea of trading for Jennings is an interesting suggestion, but such a move would eat into the team’s cap space.
Perhaps such a swap would come only after New York begins to explore certain free agency options. Trading for Jennings may be considered a backup plan of sorts, if and when they fail to land another desirable piece or two. As it stands, Jackson has already said the Knicks are set at the lead guard position. This could apply to the team’s already existent floor generals, but at the same time, Jennings could certainly serve in a capacity playing off the ball and/or being a two-guard in the triangle.
It’s obvious why the Pistons are interested in Hardaway Jr., but trading for Jennings would appear to be one of the only trade scenarios that would be worth the Knicks’ while. Should the team target Greg Monroe, a sign & trade wouldn’t appear necessary.
